Gu Jin was stunned. Her body froze, and for a moment, she thought she was imagining things.
But no… she could feel it clearly now. The mana inside the pool was flowing into her body faster than before.
Her veins tingled, and her mana core felt warm and full.
She quickly pushed the thought away and crossed her arms.
"That doesn't prove anything," she said flatly. "It could just be a coincidence."
Long Yifan's eyes sparkled like a child who had discovered a secret. "Then let's test it," he said immediately.
Gu Jin narrowed her eyes. "Test? What kind of test?"
Long Yifan scratched his cheek, pretending to think.
"A very innocent experiment," he said with a small smile. "And since my lovely Jin'er is here, I promise I won't go too far."
Gu Jin stared at him suspiciously.
"I don't like the way you said that," she muttered.
But then she sighed. She had already promised to give him a small chance, and he had promised he wouldn't cross the line.
Maybe it was fine to try.
